    Grille alternatives?

    Has anybody made or bought or modified a grille to suit the D2. I've just removed my to fit a set of lights and I'm looking for a reason not to refit the original one - any ideas? Pics?

    I'm not sure if they do a D2 grille but how about something like this:

    They do have a couple of D2 grilles listed but no pictures.

    Got inspired by the Grille that Scouse showed, but couldn't wait to buy one so thought how hard can it be? Out with the tools and here you go...too easy and I like it!

    They do they same for a D2....I have a Saudi grille on mine, its a nicely made bit of kit but boy they are pricey new...







    Have 2 more in the garage , both new and ones even in the box. But they would command a price as they are so rare and so pricey!!!

    And no I did not pay that much for mine!!!.......

    Thanks for making me feel good. Mine cost $30 and an hour with the Dremel...admittedly I don't have my original one anymore bit I never liked it anyway.
